LiveCopter 3 video showed flames shooting from the roof of the complex and firefighters climbing a ladder using a chainsaw in an effort to get access into the building.

The fire was out by 6 p.m., but crews were still mopping up hot spots.

"We chased fire around and around. We had tongue-in-groove ceilings, which is older construction, so it was tough to get our tools up and through. The crews did a great job," said Richard Holmes, battalion chief with the Cosumnes Fire Department.

Everyone who lives at the complex escaped without any injuries, according to fire officials.

Firefighters were also able to keep flames from damaging nearby buildings.
